- Is this drill good for home use?
- Yes. It covers drilling, driving and light masonry with the right bits, and the two batteries mean one is always charged. It is more drill than a casual DIYer needs, though.
- How does it compare with Milwaukee's Fuel drills?
- Fuel drills have more torque, a more refined clutch and extra features. This compact brushless model is lighter and simpler, and fine for most drilling and driving.
- What comes in the kit?
- The drill, two 5.0Ah M18 batteries, a charger and a carrying case. Bits and a belt hook are not always included.
- Can it drive screws into hardwood?
- Yes, on low gear with the clutch set high. For long lag screws or dense hardwood, a Fuel or impact driver is a better fit.
- Does it work with other Milwaukee M18 batteries?
- Yes. It runs on any M18 pack, so smaller or larger batteries from other M18 tools will fit.
- Is it too heavy for overhead work?
- It is heavier than a 12V subcompact, so long overhead sessions tire the arm sooner. For occasional overhead use it is manageable.
- Where is the Milwaukee M18 18V Lith-ion Brushless Cordless Compact Drill Kit cheapest?
- At The Home Depot, for $189.00, as of our latest check.
